5 Things That Change With Age

November 9, 2019 by Laura

Aging is an inevitable part of life for everyone. Although most of the effects of aging are physical, there are changes that extend beyond your white hair and wrinkles.

When most people think of the characteristics of aging, their minds gravitate towards a hunched over, wrinkly, flighty old man. But science shows that aging goes a little more in-depth than that. In fact, many people notice improvements as they age, like a fine wine.

When it comes to getting older, here are some of the most common changes that you anticipate happening.

Things Start To Sag

Unfortunately, gravity does set in when you get to a certain age. Your skin is usually the biggest giveaway of how old you are. Aging skin loses its elasticity and loses it’s fat. The result is looser and saggy skin covered in deep lines.

Your skin isn’t the only thing that sags. You may find that other parts of your body start to change with age too.

More Positive Outlook

Even though the stereotypical grandpa is grumpy with a furrowed brow, a lot of older people find that age brings greater happiness. As you get older, you may worry less about sweating the small stuff.

As your attitude becomes more relaxed, you may find that fewer things in life make you angry, worried, or sad. Older adults tend to wear rose-colored glasses while people in their younger years dwell on the worst-case scenarios.

Your Beliefs Get Stronger

Along with a more relaxed attitude also comes more conviction about your beliefs. People who have lived longer tend to have more rigid beliefs about everything. Whether it’s their political or spiritual beliefs, olde people tend to get stronger.

While this can be frustrating to some people who don’t share the same views, it may increase their sense of satisfaction in life. When you believe in things so strongly that there’s no doubt in your mind that they’re true, you have a greater sense of purpose and security.

You Require Less Sleep

Remember the days when you were a teenager, and you could sleep all day long? Those days are gone once you’re over a certain age. As you age, your body has a harder time, not only falling asleep but staying asleep.

Unfortunately, this leads to feeling tired and like you can’t seem to catch up on your z’s. For this reason, a lot of people have to take medication in their older age to maintain a healthy sleep schedule.

You Are Distracted Easier

Things seem to distract you easier the older that you are. Distractions arise, and it’s hard to tune them out. Although there are brain exercises that can help you stay focused longer, its, unfortunately, a part of aging.
